Premium services

Yeah guys i never paid for Hostmonster because it was the cheapest, i paid for it because it was voted the best. I am wondering is there any way in the future i could pay Hostmonster extra dosh every month to keep things looking professional if my members start multiplying like crazy and extra space and bandwidth is needed. I'ts not happening right now but who doesn't want there website to be successful ;) I'm sure and i know i do get alot of bang for my buck but like my first sentence said it's not the money issue it's the performance issue is why i picked this service.

You have unlimited space and bandwidth, so that shouldn't be an issue. If your site grows really big, the only problem you'll have is with CPU and that's inherent with all shared hosters. At that time, you'll want at least a VPS if not a dedicated server, which hostmonster does not offer.

I was told 17 terabytes of data and 17 terabytes transfer, maybe they changed there policies recently. Well i wasn't told it but i can remember seeing it on there sign up page when i first became a member.

Check out http://www.hostmonster.com/. It now says unlimited

I just noticed the Unlimited. WOW! So does that go for the existing accounts also?

Yes, all accounts are unlimited.

They must have added that real recently cause i'm a new user and i can remember there was a number before but thats awesome news, but even with that new revelation about this place i would still be meaning premium to stop the hang ups i get while trying to visit my site. Is there anyway i could ask them i would pay double if they kept my 100% uptime on my site cause i think i'm only really receiving 70% uptime which is great if you don't have much users but i'm going to be aiming for hundreds and thousands of users and members don't have them yet but i think i could manage it. I just don't want them timing out and my site crashing on them 5 times everyday.

70%? thats too low, you sure about that?

also i doubt there is any host that can offer 100% uptime, there just isn't a host that will never have a single even if small problem... dedicated servers are the best choice if you are planning to have lots and lots of traffic.

They wont take any more money. If you want 100% uptime, then get a dedicated server.

On a shared server, some things are out of the control of hostmonster. Is not like they take down sites because they are only paying $6 a month. There are many many other issues that might bring down a site.
